Cristiano Ronaldo played his first compitetive match for Los Blancos 10 years ago. To mark the anniversary, we look back at the team and where they are now.
Cristiano Ronaldo made his first competitive appearance for Real Madrid 10 years ago in a 3-2 LaLiga victory against Deportivo La Coruna.
Portugal forward reached superstar status after being made the world's most expensive player at the time when joining Madrid from Manchester United for a reported €94million.
He went on to become the club's all-time leading scorer and won 15 trophies, including four Champions League crowns and two LaLiga titles, before leaving for Juventus in 2018.
To mark the decade anniversary since it all began for Ronaldo at Madrid, we look back at their team from that day and where they all are 10 years on.
Goalkeeper: Iker Casillas
Ronaldo got off the mark in his first outing for Madrid with a penalty. The five-time Ballon d'Or winner went on to add a further 450 goals, becoming Madrid's all-time leading goal-scorer.
If last year's switch to Juve was surprising, his form for the Old Lady was anything but.
He was crowned Serie A's Player of the Year in his debut campaign after guiding Juve to an eighth straight Scudetto with his 21 goals in the league.
Forward: Raul
Club icon Raúl was into the latter stages of his Madrid career when Ronaldo arrived, spending just one season alongside him.
Ronaldo was handed Raúl's number seven shirt when the Spaniard left for Schalke 04 in 2010 and many of his goalscoring records have since fallen to arguably the club's greatest ever player.
Raúl spent a combined five years with Schalke, Al Sadd and New York Cosmos before moving into coaching with Real Madrid's age-grade and reserve sides.
Forward: Karim Benzema
The other member of this team still at the Santiago Bernabéu, Benzema has managed to see off a succession of strikers to remain Los Blancos' go-to man up top.
The Frenchman joined the same year as Ronaldo and formed an impressive partnership with his attacking colleague.
He is sixth on the club's list of all-time leading scorers with 224 goals, but is still a long way short of Ronaldo's record.
Substitute: Esteban Granero
Granero started his career with Madrid and returned in 2009 following a spell with neighbours Getafe.
He never became first-choice and is now at Espanyol, having also played for QPR and Real Sociedad.
Substitute: Gonzalo Higuaín
The Argentine striker was prolific for Madrid and Napoli between 2007 and 2016, before controversially swapping Naples for Turin.
After unsuccessful loan spells with AC Milan and Chelsea, he is back with the Old Lady under Maurizio Sarri.
Substitute: Guti
Guti spent 15 years with Madrid and is renowned as one of the most talented players to have come through their academy.
He left in 2010 and spent the final year of his career with Besiktas and is now part of their coaching staff, having also previously worked behind the scenes with Madrid.
